- Background: Epidural anesthesia and analgesia has been shown to suppress the neurohormonalstress response in certain types of surgery, but its role in the inflammatory responseto surgery is unclear. The primary aim of this study was to assess whether the choice ofanalgesic technique influences these processes in patients undergoing radical retropubicprostatectomy (RRP).Method: 26 patients undergoing RRP were randomized to Group P (systemic opioid-basedanalgesia) or Group E (thoracic epidural-based analgesia) perioperatively. Induction andmaintenance of anesthesia in both groups followed a standardized protocol. The followingmeasurements were made perioperatively : plasma cortisol, glucose, insulin, plasma cytokines(IL-6, TNF-a) and pokeweed mitogen-stimulated cytokines (IFN-g, IL-2, IL-12p70, IL-10,IL-4, and IL-17), C-reactive proteins and leucocyte count. Other parameters recordedincluded pain, morphine consumption and perioperative complications during 72 hours.Results: Plasma concentration of cortisol and glucose were significantly higher in Group Pcompared to Group E at the end of surgery with a mean difference between groups of 232nmol/L (95% CI 84-381) (P=0.004) and 1.6 mmol/L (95% CI 0.6-2.5) (P=0.003) respectively.No significant differences were seen in any plasma cytokine except IL-17, which was higherin Group P compared with Group E, both at 24 h (P< 0.001) and 72 h (P=0.018)postoperatively. Significantly higher pain intensity was seen up to 24 hours postoperatively inGroup P compared to Group E (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Thoracic epidural analgesia reduces the early postoperative stress response butnot the acute inflammatory response to radical retrobupic prostatectomy suggesting that otherpathways are involved during the acute phase reaction.
